BT and Sal tear into Hal Steinbrenner's year-end media session, criticizing his lack of "edge" and "irrational behavior" needed to fix the Yankees' championship drought. Hal defends the $319 million payroll while complaining about financial constraints, prompting the hosts to demand a "whatever it takes" spending commitment like the Mets' Steve Cohen or the Dodgers.
